Many people don’t know that the human eye has a blind spot in its field of vision.
There’s a part of the world we are literaly blind to.
The problem is, sometimes our blind spots shield us from things that really shouldn’t be ignored.
Sometimes our blind spots keep our lives bright and shiny.
When it comes to our blind spots… maybe our brains aren’t compensating.
Maybe they’re protecting us.
Most of the time, we can’t tell what’s wrong with somebody by just looking at them.
After all, they look perfectly fing on the outside.
While their insides tell us a whole other story.
Not all wounds are superficial.
Most wounds run deeper than we can imagine.
You can’t see them with the naked eye.
And then there are the wounds that take us by surprise.
The trick with any kind of wound or disease is to dig down and find the real source of the injury.
ANd once you’ve found it try like hell to heal that sucker.
There are times when even the best of us have trouble with commitment.
And we may be surprise by the commitments we’re willing to let slip out of our grasp.
Commitments are complicated.
We may surprise ourselves by the commitment we’re willing to make.
True commitment takes effort and sacrifice.
Which is why sometimes we have to learn the hardway to choose our commitments very carefully.
First, do no harm, easier said than done.
We can take all the oaths in the world, but the fact is mos of us do harm all the time.
Sometimes even when we’re trying to help, we do more harm than good.
And the guilt rears its ugly head.
What you do with that guilt is up to you.
We’re left with the choice…
Either let the guilt throw you back into the behavior that got you into trouble in the first place or…learn from the guilt and do your best to move on.
Most of our fantasies dissolve when we wake, bannish to the back of our mind.
But sometimes we’re sure…if we try hard enough…we can live the dream.
The fantasy is simple…pleasure is good…and twice as much pleasure is better…
That pain is bad…and no pain is better…
But the reality is different.
The reality is that pain is there to tell us something.
And there’s only so much pleasurewe can take without getting a stomachache.
And maybe that’s okay.
Maybe some fantasies are only to live in our dreams.
At any given moment, the brain has 14 billion neurons firing at speed of 450 miles per hour.
We don’t have control over most of them…
When we get a chill…goose bumps.
When we get excited…adrenalin.
The body naturally follows its impulses, which I think is part of makes it so hard for us to control ours.
Of course sometimes we have impulses we would rather not control…That we later wish we had.
The body is a slave to its impulses. But the things makes us human…is what we can control.
After the storm…
After the rush…
After the heat of the moment has passed…
We can cool off and clean the messes we’ve made.
We can try to let go of what was.
Time flies
Time waits for no man
Time heals all wounds
All any of us wants is more time…
Time to stand up
Time to grow up
Time to let go
Time
